"It was supposed to be a simple mission to investigate and possibly intercept a wagon belonging to the Verdant Fools.

I manipulated the ley lines to scare away the fools' demonic horses. Emit took advantage of the opportunity to investigate the cargo while Clarissa went to investigate the Keep. I didn't know what a journalist would add to the group, but then I discovered that she is very smart and has a silver tongue.

Emit was almost caught, but I used my patron's influence to save him at the last second.

Alan decided to use a weird arcana that caused a burst of fog. Then they used another arcana and freaked out.

This caught the attention of the enemies. I don't trust them very much.

I decided to move forward since the fools had acquired the pure aetherite lost in the last session. It was going to be used in a contraption that would connect the pure crystal with a demonic crystal, above a bear cage.

I used Bloose's power to destroy the contraption and open the cage, which worked temporarily, but the bear came into contact with the aetherites and became demonic.

I think Alan activated a protective spell, but it only made the bear more nervous.

Emit, under my influence, attacked the bear with a poisoned blade, which tore through its hide and caused it to faint.

I tried to finish off the bear, but the fools stopped me.

I believe Clarissa was tending to the plants in the Keep while Alan dealt with some fools.

Clarissa convinced a group of fools that the Keep was under attack. After they entered the Keep, it disappeared. It was a clever strategy.

Emit took a hostage, but the fools who went after the horses returned and refused to surrender. The bear woke up. Clarissa decided to flee, a dangerous decision, but Alan used an arcane spell to block the bear's vision. Since everyone decided to flee, I ended up retreating as well.

The hostage was useless. I wanted to use her to get the Imperials off my back, but I don't think it will work. I feel like they are even closer on my trail.

Terrible job."

Rohan's mental notes as he tries to lie low for a while:

"I thought it would be a simple escort job with some weird companions. Suddenly, all the other passengers were in stasis. I thought there was a traitor among us. I went to check the cargo with Sal, a poor victim of the Blossom. He looks like a salamander but can transform into a rat and a gorilla.

Opening the cargo locks was easy, if a little time-consuming. Meanwhile, chaos was happening on top of the train, I don't know the details. I heard explosions and Ruv almost fell off the train but barely survived. Someone was shouting something about bees.

A guy tried to release the last car, but Ruv convinced him not to do that and to help us instead. He seems like a good man. I would have killed the guy, or controlled him so he wouldn't get in my way.

Some scoundrels got to the cargo before me, my cargo. I knew it would be something important, but I didn't know it would be pure Aeterithe. I chose the right job.

I took the spoils from one of the enemies, but the other died after being attacked by a Bloose, a creature with the power to cut through even steel. I wanted that power for myself.

I attacked the creature, but it was tough. Reggie finished off the cursed creature with a punch. He's a reliable companion.

After that, everything was resolved. I don't know what Miwa did during that time. They say she blew up the enemy aircraft or something. And she cut off the arm of one of the prisoners. The rest of the people reacted badly, but I didn't care much.
The rest of the people reacted badly, but I didn't care much. I just need to stay out of her way and away from that cursed sword.

I kept one of the pure Aetherite crystals for myself. I think I can extract power from it. Maybe forge something. I didn't think anyone would notice, as some of it had already been lost anyway. I think someone ratted me out. Was it Sal? He's kind of a rat. But it was probably the guy I looted. I should have killed him.

That's why I'm laying low, damn Imperials.

Anyway, great job. Easiest shard ever."
